I think you just have to be really clear as to how you're going to handle things (kids, holidays, etc.) so that you don't get in arguments after the ceremony (which would seem to be another source of trouble, but if you really love the guy/girl then who cares). I doubt I personally would marry any one religious (I'm a very firm atheist) though just because my beliefs are a big part of who I am. But I say marry whoever you love, religion be darned.

My husband is Muslim. I was a Christian..... I converted to Islam after reading the Koran, it all made sense to me,
My parents are two diferent religions , so I really don't think it should be a big issue.

I would not advise it if either one is particularly serious about religion. There's way too many pitfalls in such a case. Religions frequently have different standards of morality and call for their followers to observe different practices (e.g. diets, attending worship services, etc.). While it's possible to agree to disagree on beliefs, if the morals and practices one must observe are different, you're just asking for trouble.
Not to mention the difficulties of deciding what religion you'll raise the kids.

muslim girl will NEVER marry non muslim person. If she follows Islam as it is NOT ALLOWED.
But there are plenty couples of Muslim man and non muslim lady.
I would be happy to marry muslim man. They are caring and loving husbands

Probably not. I wouldn't make it a "rule" or anything like that, but I doubt that I could have a serious relationship with something who has very different priorities than me.
BTW, I'm already married but I'm saying if I were still single...

I would think it would be very hard for two strong religious people of different religions to marry. But apparently they do.

I did marry someone outside of my religion... I was a Celtic Pagan (at the time) and my hub was and is Agnostic.

I'm a Deist and my husband is an atheist. We've been married 33 years. Gee, hope it works out.

God says being unequally yoked is a bad thing. A husband and wife can never achieve God's intentions when they are not on the same page, moving in the same direction.
A husband and wife being unequally yoked will be stuck together, trying to go in different directions. It will create exhaustion and frustration in the marriage and be unproductive causing nothing by trouble.
Therefore being a CHRISTian, a person who has chosen to follow the teachings of Christ Jesus, I could never marry a Muslim man.
Islam and CHRISTianity part ways around the time of Isaac and Ishmael.
Christians believe that it is Isaac who was God's intended heir to Abraham's "many nations". Muslims believe it to be Ishmael's.
However, Ishmael was born out of Sarah and Abraham's sin of not waiting on God's timing.
God had told Abraham that He would give Abraham and Sarah a son, Sarah would not wait so she devised a plan for Hagar to become pregnant with Abraham's child and with Hagar giving birth on Sarah's lap, the child would become hers.
Now, there was immediate jealousy between Hagar and Sarah after this, and the jealousy became even more intense when Sarah did actually conceive God's intended, Isaac.
The Bible tells us that Ishmael had a "Fighting spirit" and
Sarah was now worried that Hagar and Ishmael would try to steal Isaac's birthright so Sarah had Abraham caste Hagar and Ishmael out of the clan.
God went on to bless Ishmael with "many nations" also, but you will notice that from this point on God announces Himself as the "God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob." He does not refer to Himself as the God if Abraham, Ishmael and Jacob.
Ishmael went on to father the nations of Islam (Who, to this day have inherited Ishmael's "Fighting Spirit") and who are fighting for what they consider to be the birthright of Israel, though God never told Sarah and Abraham to involve Hagar in His plan.
This fighting we have today with the nation of Islam is because of Sarah and Abraham not waiting on God's timing for a child. This fighting and hatred we endure today is because the jealousy between Sarah and Hagar has cursed the very bones of our bodies, generation to generation, lest we all repent of our evil ways! ----Selah
